Hi guys,

Recently ive realised that my cars been making funny noises especially in the cold morning when turning the car on for the first time of the day. Problem is i don't know whether this sound was always there or not cuz its really not THAT loud enough to hear from inside the car.

What happened was, i was doing an oil change so my bonnet was open then i turned the car on to let the oil circulate, then when i turned it on i hear this short "crunching" sorta sound from the passengers side whereabouts the a/c thing is but couldn't precisely locate where its coming from. It happens everytime i turn the car on and on and slowly goes away till when the engine is completely warm. So please could anyone help with some suggestions or have had similar issues like mine and tell me what this is?

I would appreciate it alot as im in a tight budget go actually go see a mechanic for this at the moment as my rear bars been hit and need repairs

Cheers

it could be anything - hate to say it but go show a mechanic

lol yeah mate i guess its hard to determine by explanation over the net. But was only hoping if someone had similar issues with mine as i can't see a mechanic right now and i have a impulse attitude and would like to know as soon as i can

To give abit of info to those with GTT R34:

- It usually makes a similar sorta noise when turning the climate control knob from high/low but its from the dash that i hear it.

- The issue is i hear it under the bonnet so i lift the bonnet up and try looking for the noise and its whereabouts the BOV is

What im again curious about is, could this come from the same matter? Anyone have these climate control sounds? then similar when turning car on?

sorry mate, I dont think i have that problem or know what it is

I get the climate control thingee noise but not too sure if it makes it turning the engine on.

Okay, now im assuming it may be the a/c pipe thing where the ABS Unit is around... still don't understand why i get these squeaks

sorry not "squeaks" the "crunching" noise (can't edit for some reason)

Anymore R34 owners who care to add?
